30,000 Iz's

It is just 3 weeks now for machinima makers to enter for the Machinima contest in InWorldz, sponsored by Jeri Rahja.

The full details are as follows ...

Machinima Contest Gulliver's Travels Build in InWorldz

1) The contest begins on 2/18 and all submissions must be in by 3/25/11 - the Machinima must be posted on YouTube to be seen and the information on the Machinima location must be sent to the Sitting Judges - so that they may view it. Also provide a copy of the Machinima to be sent to Jeri Rahja.

2) All Photos must be forwarded to Jeri Rahja - so they may be properly displayed at the Gulliver Sim - the Photos must be sent with full permissions, but will never be sold or distributed except for the winning picture. (See the note below)

3) The Winning Machinima will continue to be the property of the creator, and the rights to use it for Gulliver's Travels in an agreeable manner will be determined in a cooperative manner. It is possible that we may use it for our future advertising, or utilize it as a tool for other means within Gulliver. The prize money will be paid with the release of a full perm version of the Machinima to Jeri Rahja and an agreed upon scope and usage as determined by the respective parties involved.

4) There is no limit as to how many photos or Machinima's one person may enter.

Attention: With regards to the Intellectual Property (IP) rights of the Machinima. I know there have been some questions as to the ownership, with respect to the winning Machinima and Picture. I am not seeking full ownership of the Machinima and Picture, just permission from the creator and the rights to use the Machinima and Picture within an agreeable scope and guidelines that we (the creator, Gulliver Travel's and I) can all feel comfortable. Ownership of the Machinima and Picture will continue to be that of the creator, it is the rights to utilize the Machinima and Picture I am requesting in a manner that is agreeable to each party.

So...that's well worth an entry.... get your cameras out and dust them off....

Of course not. Why I want to make a movie about Gullivers Travels that was already done 100 times before? And why would I want to rebuild it in a virtual world? Ub is for sure already busy with Snowwhite and the seven dwarfs or Cinderella. What a waste of talent.Ok, and now let me finish the replica of the Vatican I am building with matches.
